Two Thumbs Down

Is anyone else besides me completely freaked out by the AT&T commercial with talking thumbs that text? Turns out, I'm not alone. There are websites dedicated to the hate of these commercials, as well as it being one of the top hated commercials on "CommercialsIHate.com." It is seriously so wrong and gross. But, what do they say in the advertising world? Any publicity, good or bad, is publicity. If we're talking about it and I actually remembered the name of the company in the commercial, they did their job. Now, ask me if I'll ever buy anything related to AT&T, because of this commercial. NEVER. If you haven't had the joy of viewing this wonderful creative genius (yeah, right), here you go:



I give these commercials two thumbs DOWN!

FYI - This is one of Anya's favorite commercials. Paul and I hate it too and it really doesn't help when your 3 yr old starts wiggling her thumbs saying, "Shake it! Shake it hard!"
